“Alchemy is the vibrational process of transmuting one thing into another.”

When a person is ready, willing, desires and open to improving and changing their life approach, to face habitual or tough life issues and relationships, the sense organs of the body activate in more heightened ways.

There is an energetic and vibrational shift internally that can be felt in stillness.

Here is the audio story of a young woman seeking a Spiritual Teacher. She arrived as a very unexpected looking package and challenged the views of acceptability. We were both being given directives, yet, were we willing to say yes when needed?

Where are you on the journey to becoming more of Who You Are?

Are you being guided or directed to grow?

Would you be willing to take such directives?

Once on the path, it is a Journey of This Lifetime and Beyond. The journey to self empowerment and awareness requires all these and more as the paths unfold.

People and the environment cannot help but be affected by all layers of electronic webs that now invade the world-wide air we breathe. The matrix has multiplied with webs of EMF frequencies: electrical power grids, radio waves, microwaves, cable and telephones waves, dozens of phone companies with cell tower waves, computer WI-FI, television waves, satellite waves, military and NASA on-planet and off-planet frequency devices and the list continues on and on.

Each one separate, layered, yet also inter-related to the whole. If the mind could calculate the collective watts and frequency output in any given minute, I believe it would be enough to ‘blow out our human circuits’, yet, we keep on going just like the battery bunny…following the habits, routes and routines day after day not noticing.

Take a look back at the unfolding of technology in the past 60 + years, the change from analog to digital frequencies and now they are quantum frequencies. There are now frequency waves being sent out from towers and locations that are virtual – they don’t exist to the human eye! How does all of this affected overall life, health, IQ, psyche, violence, compassion, patience, governance, ethics, acceptance, in fact, every facet of day to day life?

What is there to notice?

We live day in and day out in predictable patterns for no other reason but comfort, habit and familiarity. Timetables, schedules, routes and interests of family, school, work, traffic, sports,classes and weather, can overtime make us feel like robots so we don’t pay attention to changes and objects being placed right in front of us. Changes not always good for us and objects designed to trip us up!

Most people will avoid changes. Traveling outside comfort zones demand paying more attention for all the obvious reasons, yet, there is also an opportunity to see and feel intrusions overlooked in the daily flow, particularly intrusions disguised as necessary, comfortable and informational.

Feeling the intrusions

I live in a small mountain town of about 4000 people in Northern California. We are surrounded by mountains, trees, pure water, lakes, open sky and deep ravines. Our town has everything required for living in the high-tech, fast paced, diverse, international world of today, just in smaller amounts. People in general are aware of healthy eating, living, problems of chem trails, EMFs, internet intrusions, etc. Living here makes it very easy to forget about the craziness in big populated cities.

On a recent return visit to Florida my senses got a wake up call that the invisible tech webs have been ramped up big time and now are worst than ever. This is a reminder to pay attention to the subtle changes, feelings and issues within your body, psyche and environment.

I had traveled all day from Seattle to Tampa. It was late and I was tired yet excited to see my son and his family. Once settled and nourished at their home, bed called. I tossed and turned for hours. Later my head started buzzing and an odd sort a buzz quietly ran through me. It was from a long travel day, the chaos of busy airports and time changes, I thought!

The next morning, I realized the main modem and a cell phone booster were in the room. WOW – all too close! For the rest of my visit, both of these devices were unplugged at night so no signal would run through the house. Granted, all the houses around were probably still plugged in to the hilt, yet here, there was a quieting which I really started noticing later on the second day. Not just in me but subtly with the rest of the family and the dog. From my room, listening and feeling at a distance, the family got ready for work and school in their daily routine. I noticed the ‘high nervous edge’ was gone and subtle calm changes in voice and emotions seemed to be there. By the last day there was a noticeable calming and my daughter-in-law even mentioned it.

The unseenwaves provide us with comfort, entertainment, choices and communication within our lifestyle and they also provide news, fear, destruction, intrusion, invasion and more to keep us/the masses in check. I encourage you to research Electro Magnetic Force Fields (EMF) to make your own determinations on their positive and negative aspects. Learn how to protect yourself and home. How does your body, mind and health feel and respond when being immersed daily in EMFs verses when you take time to get away and be with the natural elements supporting you?

In cities this can be really difficult, for even parks, woodlands and beaches are surrounded by towers, wires and waves. Leave the phones behind for an hour or two, spend time with bare feet on grass, dirt, sand, water – moving, feeling, breathing amongst the plants and foliage, perhaps even consciously asking Mother Earth to help support, ground and neutralize any internal disturbances. This may sound strange to some, yet, there is more to gain than to lose by just playing along!

Education and knowledge are keys to making better choices for living in these times. Life now is very different from 10, 20, 30, 70, 100 years ago. For instance: the under 20s don’t know what it is like to not have cell phones; for under 40s don’t know what it was like to not have television growing up; for over 70s, some didn’t have a regular phone or even electricity when very young.

There are those in all age groups around the world that have NEVER lived WITHOUT war!

The measuring stick is not where we are going, it is where we have been! What has been done well for the greater good and what has been done disastrously for all?

Why do I end this piece here?

Saturday is Armistice Day – the Eleventh Hour on the Eleventh Day of the Eleven Month 11:11:11: was the official end of World War I in 1918, 99 year ago – it was supposed to be the very last war because it was SO HORRIBLE!

Sadly, war seems permanent and is only about power, money and domination, never freedom. And wave and frequency technology can also be seen in many cases similarly, as a detriment to the people.

Eleven (11) is the first master number of numerology – it is about (1) individuals; (1+1=2) relationship and cooperation, balance, heaven and earth, doorways, in tune with the divine, perfect timing.

We are powerful no matter our health, status, education, beliefs, language or country. If you are still alive and breathing (as in reading this) there is the ability to make choices, consciously and unconsciously. The brain and mind are still ticking –

Think ‘I am going to live’ and you will.

Think ‘I am going to die’ – you may not, because your soul still has stuff to do!

11:11:11 – the trinity of anchor points of earth and heaven for the New Web Matrix of a Living Healthy Earth for All People!

As the Phoenix rises from the ashes of fire the New Conscious Human rises through Alchemy to Transform Life

Shedding the False Self to find truth within the illusion of today’s world can be tough. Personal life, business, career, relationships, finances, environment, creativity, spiritual seeking, religion, compassion, dominance, empathy and hate are all influenced by the lack of transparency and illusion we and others create for protection.

Yet there is one search for truth that may be the bedrock of our sanity, individually and as a humanity. It is the aeons old ‘Search for the True Self’. For I believe it is only through the finding and understanding of our own true self that the decisions made in life (both important and small) will be far more beneficial to the greater good on all.

We all know people who believe they are defined by their $$$ and how many material possessions are owned. Often there is envy felt at why they have so much and we or others don’t. There are also those who believe bullying, violence and taking from others makes them powerful. And then there is the vast majority of people living each day hoping, struggling, pushing and working to ‘just get by’.

My life has always been the search. My work has always been part of the search, even when I wasn’t consciously searching.

If you are searching for some answers and directions, here are three short audio pieces on questions, ideas, tools and perspectives to start with.

This is the beginning of a series to assist along the way. My background, education and experiences over so many years have honed me to live and hopefully assist others during these interesting and challenging times…….To learn more about Ophelia, her work and art visit

MOUNT SHASTA, CA – April 22, 2015 – Life is stressful and filled with drama for people worldwide. Mental health appears to be at an all time low and solutions offered often create another set of problems. Research shows more people are seeking a simple, peaceful and fulfilling life no matter their economic class. Self Help and Holistic Body, Mind and Spirit approaches are being sort out over traditional therapies. New approaches and perspectives for solving old problems are more important than ever.

This unique guide appears to be an easy read yet it is filled with simple, deep and profound words and art to inspire a positive Self Image. “Keeping it simple allows the quiet refining process to go on within. It is called Alchemy” say author Ophelia.

“No Frills Guide to Self Empowerment Book I” has been borne from life experiences as a seeker and 20 years work experience as a guide for others on the journey. A few topics within the section What to Ponder on the Journey include a unique view of Personal Power; Stress, the Breath of Life and How to Breathe; How to Ground Oneself and Releasing Blame. In the short story to illustrate Release and Surrender, the reader is taken to the circus to watch trapeze artists. To illustrate Being in the Flow the reader joins a surfer on his board.

In the section on The Principles to Empowerment, the reader finds A Daily Mantra of Release and four steps in the Today I Empower Myself process. These steps are To Release, To Claim, To Give and To Receive.

“You cannot BECOME Empowered unless You Know Yourself…..Seek and Discover. It takes Courage, Time and Patience” say author Ophelia

Besides being author and artist, Rev. OPHELIA is a Life Alchemist (a life coach), for Self Empowerment, Wellness, Stress Issues and Relationships and multidiscipline Creative Visionary OPHELIA uses THE ARTS (dance, art, theater, television) to express, communicate and teach about moving into a World of more SELF Awakened Consciousness.

The “No Frills Guide to Self Empowerment Book I” is now available on Amazon and soon to be in other outlets. At this time it is not out in ebook form as the presentation of format does not present well for the reader. This is a book to be handled, seen and experienced.

In the wee hours of last Tuesday morning my friend Stephanie and I arrived back from our trip to the desert, Palm Springs and Joshua Tree, to visit a friend. We knew it would be hot but you know, you forget how hot, hot is! Our 5 days ranged from 104 to 109 degrees, with nights in the high 80s! It was too hot for Stephanie so she spent most of the days inside beside a fan. Pool water was not much of a relief as it boarded on bath temp water.

I had to get out and made several trips to the town Joshua Tree, twenty-five miles from Palm Springs. The two main reasons people come to the town are Joshua Tree National Park and the Joshua Tree Retreat Center or The Institute of Mentalphysics. Joshua Tree Main Street has a small selection of cafe, restaurants and bars, craft and souvenir, bank, gas and necessities and not much else. Yubba Valley just six miles away provides the locals with all their shopping needs. The Retreat Center of 400 plus areas hosts classes, gatherings and festivals throughout the year and people come from all over the world.

I was told the National Park brings 200,000 plus visitors to this little town, although very few actually stop here, they just keep of driving! I learned to appreciate the stark beauty of the summer desert in New Mexico. Dry parched soil. Plants and cactus varieties have adapted and sustained themselves in spite of the dryness and heat. Amazing rock formations dot the landscape and offer protection for the occasional oasis that appear out of nowhere, offering wildlife the blessing of water. For me, walking, sitting and taking in the beauty of nature, feeling the ancestors in the wind and listening to the calls of wildlife bring peace and clarity not found in the everyday hustle bustle world.

Medicine Gardening

The other morning started with a major weeding project before installing a drip system in the veggie garden. A couple of weeks ago the then “innocent looking” weeds didn’t look too threatening but after lovely sunshine, lots of water and a week away the growth was tremendous. At the same time the veggies had made good progress but not to the same degree. This year as a medicine woman gardener I have marveled at the fact we have had no problems with destructive bugs, fungus or gophers, even though there are holes in many of the beds. We have used nothing at all and the soil seems balanced and accommodating to all varieties. Loving medicine magic seems to work except with the weeds!

Walking for World Peace

In the last blog I mentioned a new offering of beautiful custom hand-painted labyrinths available for anyone or any business/organization looking to enhance the body, mind and spirit connections for those in the lives. Unbeknown to me at the time this project was/is to get bigger and after much ignoring of such a fact I stepped into the guidance. You are still able to order your very own beautiful labyrinth from Earth Spirit Journeys

“Walking for World Peace” is the name of this project and will be initiated this weekend at the Mystic Garden Gathering in Selma, Or. (A gathering I never expected to ever attend….shows what I know!) The new focus of this music gathering will enhancing and understanding community more, empowering through great and diverse music, yoga, meditation, dance and sharing without drugs and alcohol. Last night as a few of the volunteers shared fabulous pizza cooked on the open fire, rain drizzling in the background (it later rained all night), I listened and learned from the young adults present, the ages of my sons, some of their desires, fears, understandings and realities. And I understood why I am to be present. They want a better world, not most of the garbage that is being presented for in 30 years this generation will be the leaders of the world….a very new world of their creation….not the one that is crumbling before our eyes.

They know, as so many of us already know, change happens from within first, to then emanate out into the world through actions, integrity, purpose and vision. Walking the labyrinth is a practice to get in touch and claim the grounded self. “Walking for World Peace” will be a video diary of everyone who participates beginning this weekend and coincides with Dr. Emoto’s Prayers for the Waters of Japan and the World on July 25th. On Monday I’ll be at Aquarius Books in Grants Pass, OR and the following weekend in Mt Shasta at a City Park festival. After that I am to take the labyrinth down through various communities in California and then beyond. Each month I ‘ll put out the video diary of all who are sharing in Walking for World Peace.” To support the travel and editing expenses of this project each person who walks the labyrinth will be asked to gift a donation as an energy exchange…..all amounts will be accepted in great gratitude.

World Peace WILL NOT come through the lack of war, anger, greed, corruption and power.

It will come and does come as EACH PERSON grows in peace within themselves, in understanding of themselves and their roles in life…..a not so easy and never ending seeking journey…..even when one leaves this life it continues in more earnest. Another topic!

If you would like to host or have Waling for World Peace come to your communityplease let me know.

Young or old, rich or poor ….we are all equal in the eyes of the Divine Creator by all names, colors, creeds and beliefs!
